While its central concerns lie within the philosophic tradition, materials drawn from the social sciences and elsewhere provide important illustrations of the intellectual movements that the author attempts to trace. This book aims at examining philosophic modes of thought as well as sifting presuppositions held in common by a diverse group of thinkers whose antecedents and whose intentions often had little in common. After a preliminary tracing of the main strands of continuity within philosophy itself, the author concentrates on how, out of diverse and disparate sources, certain common beliefs and attitudes regarding history, man, and reason came to pervade a great deal of nineteenth-century thought. Geographically, this book focuses on English, French, and German thought. Mandelbaum believes that views regarding history and man and reason pose problems for philosophy, and he offers critical discussions of some of those problems at the conclusions of parts 2, 3, and 4. 410 0$aHopkins open publishing encore editions. 606 $aReason 606 $aHistory$xPhilosophy 606 $aModern philosophy$y19th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aReason. 615 0$aHistory$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aModern philosophy 676 $a190/.9/034 700 $aMandelbaum$b Maurice$f1908-1987.$0160056 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910524676803321 996 $aHistory, man, & reason$9477292 997 $aUNINA
